I know this is not a popular opinion, but I didn't love this book. My feelings can be summed up pretty well by this online review
Despite much right wing praise, I thought the guy was basically making a long winded, confused argument in favor of socialism.
That being said, you can learn a lot if you stick to the facts and ignore his opinions.
that's a great summary. i don't disagree with it, rambling for sure, and it was a battle to get through whole thing, absolutely.
but I still liked it because I was listening to it (audio always seems less of a lift) and learned how we've functioned for thousands for years with debt, and how markets likely emerged with larger governments and war.
definitely felt like I deserved a badge for finishing though! haha

I also took the audio route, and I certainly agree the book had a lot of good information.
